-
it's no easy chore on the spirit.
-
I say no man of conscious;
-
can take the lash to another human day in and day out
-
without shredding at his own self.
-
Takes him to a place...
-
where he either makes excuses within his mind to be unaffected...
-
or finds some way to trample his guilty sensations.
-
Well, I trampled,
-
with frequency.
-
I gave in to tales of wealth and prosperity,
-
but such profitable outcomes
-
are reserved for the plantation masters.
